"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Aristotle couldn't even answer this one.
You're going to try and take a stab at it?

happiness is being thankful for what you have, no matter how little that is.

There's a reason philosophers don't have all the answers.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Happiness is being satisfied with what you've got. That doesn't mean that you shouldn't try anything new of course, because that would become boring, and thus you wouldn't be satisfied with what you have. Still, there is a line in one of the Roman poet Horace's Odes that goes thus:

The less I desire, the more I seem to have.

Judge for yourself, ultimately.

Happiness is not a state of mind. You can't choose to be happy when you're hurt. It's just plain denial.

To explain happiness is like trying to explain what love is.

There is no answer.

However, I do somewhat agree with Aristotle when he says that it might be a process where we put value in what we perceive to make us happy and trying to attain it.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

...A full tank of gas in my tank (BMW), no traffic, a pretty girl in the passenger seat, and a clear mountain road.

...Finding more reason for the journey than the destination, for we never grow when we stagnate in one place too long.

...Always evolving because a new experience expands our perception of time, which is really all we have.

My thoughts :)

^ it's from a cool song (i'm having a brain fart right now so I don't remember the name)

Happiness is when you bust a nut on a snotty b*tches face.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Happyness is self esteem according to Dr Paul on Deep Inner Game.

Fulfillment = Happiness + Success + Freedom
